ideas for a location for bridal shower....

I know as the Bride I'm not supposed to be planning my own bridal shower but I'm trying to help my mother and grandmother comes up with some different ideas for a location to use for the shower. Does anyone have any suggestions? Our wedding is in June and the shower will probably be in April or May.

Re: ideas for a location for bridal shower....

  • In my experience, bridal showers are usually held at the home of the hostess (or one of them, at least). If that isn't an option, maybe you could look into having it at a favourite coffee shop, tea house, or restaurant? I know that's quite popular here, especially in the cities where no one has the space to host events in their homes.

  • I've been to or hosted them at- home indoors, home outdoors with pop up tents, restaurant, church hall, community center (my grandparents live in a 55+ neighborhood of condos and they have a big hall they let anyone use as long as they clean after themselves).

  • All the showers I've attended have either been at someone's house or a restaurant. 
  • My future mother in law is hosting one at a church and my sister is hosting one at a tea shop.
  • We're having mine at my parent's house. We tried to have it at a restaurant. But they were all either booked or wanted $50 a head.

  • Restaurant, hostess' house or backyard, golf club, coffee place, a hall, or a historic site (ie. old mansion).

  • My mum is hosting mine at their house.

    I agree with a small restaurant, tea house, etc. If you expect a LOT of people, you can usually rent out a room somewhere, or book a hall.
